Minecraft-like game, except 2d!

"Dig, fight, explore, build! Nothing is impossible in this action-packed adventure game. The world is your canvas and the ground itself is your paint. Terraria is coming soon!"
i bet there is stuff you actually cant do, thats false advertising.
personally i think this game looks kinda boring, for example a first person perspective game is more often than not more immersive than a side scrolling game, the fact that the combat is "better" or "there are more enemies" doesnt matter, you can see them coming a mile off, and it spoils the shock of bumping into them.
also, its just a blatant rip-off really, and im inclined to hate it from day one.

There are many reasons that a 2D Minecraft might be preferable to a 3D one, and vice versa. Personally I'd love a 2D Minecraft.Dr Jones said:
Edit: Just watched the video and it looks nothing like Minecraft :/ Why people are calling this a rip-off is beyond me. It does take a few mechanics from Minecraft but atleast it innovates upon them rather than just being a carbon copy like the 10+ other Minecraft rip-offs.
The game looks great, might even be better then minecraft for those of us that like combat more. It also looks like you might level up and/or gain more max stars along the way.
Tons of questions about it though and I don't see anything but the one trailer video on the website.
Can you enjoy the game solo? Those bosses look like they were made to fight with multiple characters for instance.
Is there a leveling system? Different weapons etc to fight with?
How does crafting work etc.
Tons of stuff that would need to be answered. A demo of the game would also be very useful although the trailer does make it look worth playing. Still really need to have more information.

Wow.. Minecraft isn't even finished yet and people are already trying to rip it off... And failing.
Honestly this game looks incredibly boring compared to Minecraft.

I have watched the video. I can confirm it looks, and this is the technical term, "fucking pointless". Especially when you can run Minecraft using some pubic hair, a rock, and a hamster running in a wheel.YourMom said:

Veeeeeery interesting.
*suspicious eyes*
Isn't Minecraft technically a generational step ahead of this game? It looks like the game Minecraft evolved from, like Mario evolving from the first Mario game into his current 3D iteration.
That said, I don't see much point in playing it, as it seems kinda boring to me.

Looks okay, not quite Minecraft good but it may be fun to play. I'll check it out once it's actually out there.
If I can manage to put up with Minecrafts graphics then this game will be no problem but I'm doubting it's gonna be as creepy since the caverns don't appear to be dark at all.

This whole thread is making me a little suspicious. I mean that Mr Jones guy has posted a zillion times and even quoted my same post twice.Woodsey said:
It's also not like the Escapist to immediately shun a game like this. Everyone seems to be treating it as though it's an actual 2D Minecraft rather than just sharing similarities. I'm sure I never saw this much hate for the actual rip-offs like FortressCraft and whatnot.
